A couple thoughts about my adventure with reverse camera

I was always fearful of the sitation when I tried to do reverse parking and I had to fit a car in a very limited space. A lot of us as not only was training this ability all the time during the driving course, but also had to present this maneuver when having the driving exam. I managed to pass it victoriously but it didn’t solve 1 thing – I always felt very frightened each time I had to do reverse parking. This thing terrified me so much that I unconscious started to avoid reverse parking. One day I was dropping home my colleague. When I was looking for a parking place next to his house, he immediately noticed I was very scared that I had to do a reverse parking. However, he didn’t say a word at that time.

Times was passing by and I forgot about that situation in the car. Nonetheless, my colleague has an amazing memory. On my birthday I received from him… bmw reverse camera f30! The present was accompanied with a nice card that said: “I am concinved that you will enjoy driving much more, if you don’t worry about a reverse parking so desperately. Thanks to this camera you will see everything you want to see behind your car!”.

And guess what? He was right! I have been having that rear view camera f30 for 3 weeks now. And I love this! If you compare it to ordinary car mirrors, this camera allows to detectmuch more and at better angle. I don’t have to worry anymore that there is field known as “blind area” just behind a car. I am able to see all I need to do reverse parking safely.

What’s even more, when I was relying solely on car mirrors, I was also frightened about the fact that proportions and distance of the view that I could see in typical rear view mirrors was oftendistorted. Thanks to the rear view camera I do not need to speculate on distance anymore. I am able to check how much place exactly has left and how far I can still reverse. To sum up, if you are scared of reverse parking, the rear view camera will be a great option for you too. I am very grateful for my friend that he gave this gift to me. If I knew before that such thing exists, I wouldn’t have wasted so much time trying to avoid reverse parking! If there is so awesome device that could make our life easier, why not to use it!
